Hey moms,
It’s July. That means we’re officially halfway through the year. And whether that feels wild, overwhelming, or like a small victory, it’s the perfect moment for a reset.
As a breastfeeding mom working in scrubs, your days probably don’t slow down just because the calendar flips. But July offers something powerful: perspective. A moment to pause, reflect, and remind yourself of what’s working… and what needs to shift.
Here’s your mid-year check-in, mama-to-mama:
Revisit Your “Why”
Whether you’re pumping between call lights or racing home to feed before bedtime, your “why” matters. Maybe it's to provide, to heal, to nurture, to grow—whatever it is, write it down. Say it out loud. Let it anchor you when your energy runs low.
Check Your Routine (Not Just Your Vitals)
Has your pumping schedule slipped a bit? Are you skipping snacks, skipping breaks, skipping yourself? It happens. July is a great time to reset your rhythms. Small tweaks—like prepping pump parts the night before or setting gentle reminders—can help you feel more in control again.
3. Celebrate the Wins (Even the Small Ones)
You made it through the first half of the year while breastfeeding and working in scrubs? That’s a whole celebration. Whether your supply dipped, stayed strong, or changed altogether—you kept going. And that matters.
4. Prep for a Powerful August
Next month is World Breastfeeding Month and Mommy Scrubs' 1-year anniversary 🎉. We’re planning something special and we want you with us. This is the time to check your inventory (do your tops still fit well?), share your story, and lean into the community we’re building.
5. Give Yourself Credit
You’ve been doing the most. And even on the days when you feel like it’s not enough—you’re doing something powerful. Every feed, every pump, every hour in your scrubs is proof that you’re showing up, even when it’s hard.
Let’s Check In Together
Drop a comment or DM us @mommy.scrubs and let us know how you’re feeling this month. Overwhelmed? Empowered? Somewhere in between? We want to hear it.
Mama, you're halfway through the year. And you're still standing. That’s strength. That’s grace. That’s you. 💗👩🏾⚕️🍼
